additional information | construction of three CPNbeta mutants, with the truncation of 1, 2 and 6 amino acids from the C-terminus, named CPNbetaTc1, CPNbetaTc2 and CPNbetaTc6, respectively. CPNbetaTc2 and CPNbetaTc6 are designed to delete two hydrophobic amino acid residues from the CPNbeta C-terminus (Gly-Ser-Glu-Asp-/Phe-Gly-Ser-Asp-/Leu-Asp, with / indicating Tc6 and Tc2 truncation positions). The mutants form hexadecameric homooligomers, similar to the wild-type CPNbeta (CPNbetaWT). The thermal aggregation of CS is completely suppressed by the presence of an equimolar amount of the CPNbeta mutant variants. The truncation mutants exhibit the same protection abilities as CPNbetaWT. The mutant isoforms CPNbeta and PFDalpha1beta1 from strain KS1 interact with each other at high affinity, interaction analysis using immobilized PFDalpha1beta1, overview | Thermococcus sp.

additional information | the group II CPNs do not require a GroES-like co-CPN but have a built-in lid that is composed of a helical protrusion in the apical domain. The rate of transfer of a substrate protein from PFD to CPN correlates with the strength of the PFD-CPN interaction | Thermococcus sp. JCM 11816 | |
prefoldin | PFD, is a jellyfish-like hexameric protein that is exclusively found in archaea and eukaryotes, ans is a molecular chaperone that captures an unfolded protein substrate and transfers it to a group II chaperonin (CPN). The transfer of a substrate from PFD to CPN involves a direct interaction, PFD interacts with the apical domain of CPN. Analysis of protein-folding mechanism of PFD and CPN using the PFD-CPN systems of the hyperthermophilic archaea, the C-terminal region contributes to the functional cooperation between PFDalpha1beta1 and CPNbeta, overview. The C-terminus of the PFD alpha subunit is not important for the interaction with CPN and substrate transfer | Thermococcus sp. JCM 11816 |

evolution | chaperonins (CPNs) are subdivided into group I and group II. Group I CPNs are present in bacteria and in the organelles of eukaryotes. Group II CPNs exist in the cytosol of archaea and eukaryotes | Thermococcus sp. JCM 11816 |

physiological function | chaperonins (CPNs) are ubiquitous, double ring-shaped molecular chaperones that capture unfolded proteins in their cavities and assist in protein folding in an ATP-dependent manner. Prefoldin (PFD) captures an unfolded protein substrate and transfers it to a group II chaperonin (CPN).
